You’re within walking distance of countless eateries—everything from casual burger joints to late-night pizza spots. And with a microwave and fridge in every room, you can stash your leftovers or bring snacks back from the show. Breakfast joints open early nearby, perfect for a slow start after a late night.

What People Say

Reviewers love the location—close to the Wharf, public transit, and restaurants. Many guests mention that the rooms are clean and functional, especially for the price. Visitors also appreciate the friendly front desk staff and the ease of check-in. It's not luxury, but it delivers great value for the area.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the building shows its age and the décor is basic. Soundproofing isn’t perfect, so light sleepers might want to pack earplugs. Parking is available but limited, and costs extra—something to keep in mind if you're road-tripping to the concert.

Exceptional

Liked: The price matches the quality — it’s a basic room at a low cost, and what’s really great is that they’re pet-friendly. Most likely, every room has hosted guests with dogs, just like us.
Disliked: Unfortunately, a microwave was really missing — even just one in the office would’ve been helpful. Other than that, everything was fine and clean. It’s worth the price paid, which was very reasonable.
